The Protocol

What’s This Podcast
About?

Since 2021, nearly half the states in the U.S. have passed bans on medical treatments for transgender minors. The Trump administration is now targeting the care, and in the coming weeks, the Supreme Court is expected to weigh in. “The Protocol” is the story of youth gender medicine — where it came from, who it was meant to help, and how it got pulled into a political fight that could end it altogether.
